Hi Ravish,

I use this to read url parameters

var id = getParmVal('<parameter name>');  //place this in the main function in client script

//place this function in the same script, out of the main function
function getParmVal(name){
var url = document.URL.parseQuery();
if(url[name]){
return decodeURI(url[name]);
}
else{
return;
}

Hi Anurag, Its now working. per this post, seems like document and window object are no longer supported in regular or service portal view.
